Why convert GIF to SVG?
SVG is a plain, uncompressed format — the file will likely be larger than the GIF original, in exchange for maximum compatibility. The main reason to convert GIF to SVG is compatibility: SVG opens in every browser, image viewer and design tool without a plugin, while GIF doesn't always. If you're sharing a file with someone else, sending it to a tool that expects a specific format, or archiving it for the long term, SVG is usually the safer target.

Frequently asked questions
Is converting GIF to SVG free?
Yes — the first 50 conversions every month are free on any plan, including GIF to SVG.
Will I lose quality converting GIF to SVG?
SVG is vector format that scales to any size without quality loss. We use the highest-quality encoder settings by default so visual or data loss is minimized.
Do you keep a copy of my file?
No, not by default. You choose a retention window at upload — immediate, 1 hour, 24 hours or 7 days — and the file is permanently deleted after that.
What is GIF?
Legacy animated/static format with limited color depth, still widely used for short loops.
Will my converted file have a watermark?
On the Free plan, SVG output includes a small "Converted with Convyx" mark. Pro ($9/mo) removes it, along with the 25 MB file size cap.
What happens if a conversion fails?
You get a clear error message and the job is marked failed in your history — we never silently drop a file. Retry is one click, and nothing is charged against your quota for a failed job.
